NOTES: Lister (1894: 119) only mentions material from Lyme Regis, Dorset in the desciption of this species (L: B.M.89). There were 3 slides in BM with this number but the chosen lectotype is from “1.1890”, while the third slide is from a later date, Feb. 1892, and we consider it to be a syntype. In BM there are also 2 boxes ( BM 776 , BM 1399 ) . BM 776 is from Ivy Hollow, Lyme and has two cards with material, one from Feb 12.92 and the other from Feb. 20.94. The third slide may be from this box as the data coincide. Box BM 1399 has “? Type specimen” and is from Undercliff, Lyme Regis, leg. Lister, Feb.12.1892. There are no notes. Nannenga-Bremekamp (1975) transferred this species to the genus Collaria , but some authors do not accept this genus.
